kansasguy Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 Thanks for your advise. I appreciate it very much. I also have a letter form my school physolagist saying that I did have LD in school but did not have ADD and my main problem for LD was reading and math. And that I did not get in trouble and was very polite to the staff and teachers. He was the phyc. from my 5th to 12th grade year. ALsohe stated that I had very good grades why in high school I had mostly A's and B's which he stated would be unlikely if I had ADD that my grades be that good.

kansasguy Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Arg!!! Ok just got a letter from the VA saying they we recieved my request for bennefits. So I called and ask what claim it was. The guy was like well they are reviewing your currents service connection since I have filed TBI PTSD and depression. Since I filed those they are now reviewing my sevice connected I am now being comp. He said they probably looking at lowering it or stop the bennefits. Anyone else have this happened before?

timetowinarace Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Well, for one, don't trust what they tell you on the phone. It's not uncommon for them to review already SC conditions when doing new claims. One thing they have to do is make sure they don't pyrimid ratings. In other words they don't want overlapping symptoms to get two ratings. I wouldn't worry too much about it. They will send written notification for a proposal to reduce before actually reducing the rating. You will have time to fight it then. Meanwhile, don't sweat it. The guy on the phone is just guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kansasguy Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 What is secondary rater? I called and the guy said my claim was with secondary rate and decition will be mailed out. He told me not send anymore evidence in and hold on to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timetowinarace Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I can't be sure what he means by secondary rater. I would tend to think that this is good news though, at least partly. It sounds like your claim has been rated(granted) and is waiting a 'second signature'. This is just a guess though. Useing third hand information(the guy on the phone is getting info from computer and your getting info from him) my guess may not be very good. I would give it some time. Good luck.
